IMPACT OF ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT ON THE EFFICIENCY OF ORGANIZATIONAL MANAGEMENT

Abstract

The article examines the impact of electronic document management (EDM) on the efficiency of organizational management in the context of digital transformation. The key aspects of the transition from paper processes to automated systems that ensure data processing speed, reduce operating costs and increase the level of control over document management are considered. Particular attention is paid to the advantages of implementing EDM, including optimizing business processes, increasing  employee productivity, minimizing the risks of losing or damaging documents, as well as strengthening information security.The article examines the main challenges and risks associated with the implementation of electronic document management, including technical, organizational and legal aspects. The role of software selection, the importance of integration with existing enterprise management systems, the need for staff training and the development of strategies to reduce resistance to change are analyzed. The paper also presents practical recommendations for the effective implementation of EDM, including system testing before launch, phased configuration of business processes, ensuring multi-level information protection and monitoring the effectiveness of the system. The main criteria for selecting software for electronic document management and bestpractices for adapting the organizational structure to digital processes are determined. The conclusions obtained confirm that the implementation of EDM is not  only a tool for optimizing document management, but also a strategic solution for improving the efficiency of organizational management, ensuring its competitiveness and compliance with modern requirements of the digital economy.
